I have a 135 gallon tank in our basement; it's been running for about 8 years now. My evaporation rate and humidity issues went away with the switch from MH lights to LED. Tank temp is far more stable too. It will use about six to eight gallons a week in evaporation depending on the temperature and relative humidity of the ambient air. I do have an HRV for the house which is good no mater what for refreshing the air in the home.
